Got it last night. First impressions are that it seems smoother that the alpha. The dual window mode is much improved. I still think it will have only marginal value on phones but it's much easier to get into and our of then it was in the last build. They finally added a clear all to the history list, I don't know why they neglected to put it into M but better late then never. The button is at the top of the list, usually it's covered with cards but if you pull down the cards at the top of the screen it will appear.
App compatibility is the same, most apps work, a few don't. My list of non working apps is,
Free Adblock Browser, however Adblock Browser does work, aside for the name I don't know if there is any connection between the two.
Here Maps. Don't really care about this one. I have Sygic for off line navigation and it does work.
Brave. This is a new browser, it's really really incompatible, it takes over the whole screen, the only way to get rid of it is to reboot and then uninstall it.
FIOS Mobile, can't log in if save password is checked, but can log in when it's not checked. Get a network error when the box is set.
Wikipedia crashes a lot but it is usable. Experienced one event where it went into dual window mode on it's own and then crashed.
Everything else that I use works fine.
Day 2 update. I'm finding that it gets sluggish after a while which requires a reboot to fix. I've never seen that behavior on M.
